LUCHUMO
Yhooo ay today , I woke up in the right side of the bed but there’s a fool who woke up in a wrong side of her bed and chose to ruin my day .
I received a text from one of Sphetho’s girlfriend . She gave me a plate full of s**t early in the morning .
To make things worse . The last time I had s*x with Sphetho was 7 or 8 months ago before founding out that he is the man of all nations .
He left early yesterday , I’m sure he went to one of his girlfriends . The MAIN chick as she said called me and told me where to get off .
Now my mood is ruined . I get ready for the meeting I’m going to have with the lawyer.
“ long time . “
I turn to looks at her . ohhh my friend , it has been a while .
Me : I’m very busy these days . I’m sorry .
Her : you’re getting enough clients?
Shit , I almost forgot about that . I forgot to tell her the truth. I clear my throat.
She stops eating and looks at me.
Her : what’s going on?
Me : Yhooo Lee I’m ashamed .
The reality is heating in every time when I have to tell someone about what is going on .
She looks at me like she’s trying to read the problem in my eyes .
Her : don’t tell me you got yourself a blasser.
Me : even worse .
Her : are you a p********e?
You can tell she regret her choice of words.
Her : I mean…
Me : I’m in a process of being someone’s surrogate.
She looks at me shocked .
Me : please don’t judge me , I’ve judged myself enough .
Her : how the hell did you get to a point….. who’s the father ? How did … please forgive me but I have many questions in my mind right now .
Me : I also don’t know , the only thing I remember is that I was very desperate for money . I hears one of my clients talking about her brother wanting a surrogate . I approached the brother , in a very unpleasant manner . I gave him my number , he called me . That’s how it started .
Yes , the way I approached him . I’m not proud of myself right now . To be honest , I’m not proud of this Luchumo but I’ll work hard to get a better and best version of my self.
Sometimes we need to pass through difficult times to be where we want to be .
May this quote build a home in my heart . I need to believe it and let it heal my broken heart .
Her : Yhooo friend , this is too much but I believe God knows what he’s doing. We may be confused right now , there’s a lot in our minds but one day everything will be clear .
Me : thank you for not judging me .
Her : I understand what you’re going through . At least you are not doing something illegal .
Me: I know right , but this feels so wrong .
Her : that’s because you’ve never imagined yourself in those shoes . Giving someone a chance to be a dad or mom is a very beautiful thing .
Me : it’s beautiful when you went there with the intention of helping them not getting money .
Her : don’t beat yourself please .
My phone vibrates . It’s a text from him .
“ Sambulo is waiting for you outside . “
Hawu .
Me : my love , I need to go . I have a meeting with his lawyer . I’ll see you later .
Her : of friends , bye .
I pulls my bag and walks out . I see his car . I knock on the window . He rolls it down .
Him : get in the passenger seat .
I gets in .
Me : good morning .
Him : good morning Lu , how are you ?
Me : nervous .
He starts the car .
Him : can I ask you something?
Me : sho .
Him : why are you doing this? I mean you are very young and beautiful . Pregnancy for a rude man like Mr. Khoza can ruin your whole life .
He's low key judging me .
Me : I need money .
Him : I can give you that money you need . If not me , you are beautiful. You can get yourself a man that will give you that money .
Me : then I’ll owe that man for the rest of my life . No thank you , I want money of my own sweat .
Him : I’ll give you that money with love . You won’t owe me anything .
Me : nope, they all say it like that . Then after falling for their trap , they will start mistreating you . When you try to leave them , they will remind you that you owe them . No thank you . I’m good .
He looks at me for some time .
Him : who broke you baby girl .
I looks away trying to swallow the lump in my throat .
Me : no one .
He tries to say something but I blocks him . I don’t like this conversation.
